1 SHOWMANSHIP Prepared By the Education/Evaluation Commission and Judges & Stewards Commissioner E. Bethany Drive Aurora, Colorado (303) Arabian Horse Association Showmanship effective 12/1/15 1
2 SHOWMANSHIP CLASS DESCRIPTION Good Showmanship is developed through the knowledge and understanding of the horse and the ability of the handler to present the team in a confident manner. Showmanship involves the handling of the horse, learning the horse s conformation, learning how to position and present the horse at its best, and understanding the disposition of the horse. Showmanship teaches the handler poise and self-carriage. A good Showmanship handler shows alertness and a confident attitude, always presenting the horse in a positive manner, and paying attention to every detail. The handler is always aware of their surroundings, the horse, the judge and the other exhibitors. The showmanship class is not a halter class and should not be judged as such. The conformation of the horse is not to be judged, since the horse is considered a means of displaying the abilities of the showman. Horses are to be presented in the appointments (tack and attire) suitable for that horse s style. The class is designed to evaluate the exhibitor s ability to execute, in concert with their horse, a set of maneuvers prescribed by the judge with precision and smoothness while exhibiting poise and confidence, all while maintaining a balanced, functional and fundamentally correct body position. Style of presentation should be decided upon by two primary considerations. First, the type of horse, its movement and way of going determine if it is best to go western, hunter, saddle seat, dressage or show hack style. Safety is paramount when considering the type of lead and method of attachment or utilization of the reins to lead. Consideration of the size of the horse and height of the handler is important to a safe and successful presentation. JUDGING GUIDELINES Showmanship - 70 percent Leading 1. The exhibitor must lead on the horse s left side holding the lead in the right hand a reasonable length, with safety in mind. The right hand must remain on the lead at all times (not on the chain). It is not appropriate to switch hands while completing the maneuvers (except set-up). If exhibitor has changed hands during the set up maneuver, they are to put the lead back in the right hand for all other maneuvers. Smaller exhibitors may need to use a longer hold on the lead strap. Hold the excess lead strap in your left hand, either in a round coil or a figure-8, as long as it is being handled safely by the exhibitor. Both options are acceptable and exhibitors will not be penalized for either method used. The Figure-8 should not be taped as this compromises safety. When leading, the exhibitor should be positioned between the eye and the mid-point of the horse s neck, referred to as the leading position. 2. Leading, backing, turning and initiating the set-up should be performed from the left side of the horse. At no time should the exhibitor ever stand directly in front of the horse. The exhibitor should not touch the horse with their hands Showmanship effective 12/1/15 2
3 or feet, or visibly cue the horse by pointing their feet at the horse during the set-up 3. The horse should be led in a straight or curved line, as indicated in the pattern, and track briskly and freely at the prescribed gait as instructed. The horse s head and neck should be straight and in line with the body. 4. Both arms should be bent at the elbow with the elbows held close to the exhibitor s side and the forearms held in a natural position. Height of the arms may vary depending on the size of the horse and exhibitor, but the arms should never be held straight out with the elbows locked. 5. When demonstrating the trot, the exhibitor should run as naturally as possible. The exhibitors should demonstrate a natural frame and gait. b. Showing 1. The exhibitor should perform the work accurately, precisely, smoothly, and with a reasonable amount of speed. Increasing speed of the work increases the degree of difficulty; however, accuracy and precision should not be sacrificed for speed. The horse should lead, stop, back, turn and set up willingly, briskly and readily with minimal visible or audible cueing. A severe disobedience will not result in a disqualification but should be penalized severely, and the exhibitor should not place above an exhibitor that completes the pattern correctly. Excessive schooling or training, willful abuse, loss of control of the horse by the exhibitor shall be cause for disqualification. 2. The presentation/set up. The horse may be set up with a split stance or square. Either option is allowed and acceptable. Exhibitors will not be penalized for either set up style. Exhibitor should stand toward the front, off the horse s shoulder, facing the horse. If at any time the horse is out of position, the exhibitor should work to position the horse correctly. 3. After the horse is set up for inspection As the judge moves around the horse, handlers should position themselves so as to avoid obstructing the judge s view of the horse. The handler is to show using the Quarter System, where the exhibitor is always in the quadrant next to the judge. The horse should be shown quietly and effectively at all times. Handlers must not just show themselves. The exhibitor should maintain a position that is safe for themselves and the judge. The position of the exhibitor should not obstruct the judge s view of the horse and should allow the exhibitor to maintain awareness of the judge s position at all times. The exhibitor should not crowd other exhibitors when setting up side-by-side or head-to-tail. When moving around the horse, the exhibitor should change sides in front of the horse with minimal steps (3-4) and should assume the same position on the right side of the horse that they had on the left side. 4. The position of the exhibitor when executing a turn to the right is the same as the leading position except that the exhibitor should turn and face toward the horse s head and have the horse move away from them to the right. 5. Pull turns (pulling horse toward you to left) to the left should be 90 degrees or less. 6. Push turns/pivot (pushing the horse away from you) On turns of greater than 90 degrees, the turn consists of the horse pivoting on a hind leg while stepping across and in front of the right front leg with the left front leg. Showmanship effective 12/1/15 3
4 7. When executing a back, the exhibitor should turn from the leading position to face toward the rear of the horse with the right hand extended in front of the exhibitor s chest still maintaining slight bend in the elbow and walk forward. The ideal position is for the exhibitor s left shoulder to be in alignment with the horse s left front leg. 8. The horse should back up readily with the head, neck and body aligned in a straight or curved line as instructed by the pattern. 9. The stop should be straight, prompt, smooth and responsive with the horse s body remaining straight. 10. Crowding should be penalized, as it is dangerous. The handler should maintain 8-10 from the horse in front of them in a head to tail line. When lined up side by side, there needs to be sufficient room between entries. If someone is at risk they are too close. c. Poise/Alertness/Attitude 1. Exhibitors should be poised, confident, courteous and genuinely sportsmanlike at all times, quickly recognizing and correcting faults in the positioning of the horse. The exhibitor should continue showing the horse until the class has been placed or they have been excused, unless otherwise instructed by the judge. The exhibitor should appear business-like, stand and move in a straight, natural and upright manner, and avoid excessive, unnatural or animated body positions. 2. Handler should show the horse to its best advantage for its style of presentation throughout the class. 3. Handlers should be focused on the class and not be distracted by people/other things inside or outside the arena. Presentation - 30 Percent a. Condition 10% 1. The horse s body condition and overall fitness should be assessed. 2. The horse should be alert and healthy. b. Grooming 10% 1. The hair coat should be clean, well-brushed and in good condition. The mane, tail, forelock and wither tuft may not contain ornaments (ribbons, bows, etc.), but braiding as defined in the appointments chart is allowed. The length of mane and tail may vary, as long as they are neat, clean and free of tangles. The bridle path, eyebrows, and long hair on the head and legs may be clipped. 2. Grooming oils should not be overdone 3. Hooves should be properly trimmed and if shod, the shoes should fit correctly and clinches should be neat. Hooves must be clean and may be painted clear or black hoof dressings, or shown naturally c. Appointments 10% Showmanship effective 12/1/15 4

6 Types and Definitions of Leads and Methods of Attachment 1. Leather lead attached in bottom center ring of leather stable halter. There is no chain 2. Leather lead with connector. Connector is a leather piece with buckles on each side. There is no chain. Can be attached to the bit in several of the presentation styles 3. Leather lead directly attached to complete and closed noseband/cavesson. Chain may be used with closed noseband/cavesson. Chain is never to be run through any bit. 4. Leather lead with chain that has a ring on each end-- length of chain varies depending on presentation style 4a. Non-captured chain chain with a ring on each end is run through the sides of the halter and the rings are connected below to the lead 4b. Captured chain chain with a ring on each end is run through the sides of the halter and the rings and the center of the chain under the chin are all connected below to the lead 5. Leather lead with a chain, or other suitable soft material that provides a release, manufactured to it and a snap on one end. Length may vary depending on presentation style. 5a. Chain under chin Chain will run through the left side ring of the halter under the chin of horse through the right side ring of the halter and up to the right cheek ring on halter. Snap connects on right cheek ring on halter facing out. Ideally with only 6--8 of chain coming out of the left cheek ring. 5b. Chain Double Up Chain runs through either method described in 5a or 5b above. Because the length of chain is too long it may be run through the right cheek ring on the halter and run back down to the right side ring and attached to the right side ring with the snap facing out. This method will work, but it is preferable to not Double Up the Chain. (A shorter chain is a safer presentation.) ELIMINATIONS 2016 Judges can only eliminate per AR 248 Showmanship Faults #14 Any handler not having his horse under sufficient control must be dismissed from the ring by the judge. One must be very careful with eliminations we can only eliminate if it is supported in the USEF/EC rules. However, we are in an educational process for exhibitors, judges and spectators alike has additional causes for elimination as follows: Mandatory Causes for Elimination 1. Horse escapes from exhibitor 2. See AR105.6 for inhumane treatment and undue stress 3. Excessive schooling or training 4. Loss of control or severe disobedience that endangers others to include but not limited to: biting, pawing, rearing, bolting, lunging, breaking away, kicking out or continuously circling the exhibitor The judge can deem it necessary to excuse the exhibitor. 5.

11 PATTERNS and CLASS CONDUCT The pattern for each class must be posted one hour (Regionals and Nationals 24 hours) prior to the start of the class and indicate which one of the three procedures will be used. The choices are on the pattern itself: In the Ring Exhibitors enter arena and remain collectively for the entire class. Exhibitors are to enter the arena at the walk. Trot at the marker and line up at the discretion of the ringmaster. In and Out of the Ring Exhibitors enter arena one at a time and are excused at the completion of their pattern. At the Gate Exhibitors enter arena one at a time and are gathered in arena for final inspection as a collective group. It is appropriate to meet with the exhibitors at the gate before the class to answer any questions. Subsequent patterns are to be available immediately following the last working section of each phase. HOW TO SELECT LEVELS Patterns are classified by level 1, 2 or 3 with 3 being the most difficult. The level chosen by the judge must take into account the ages of the exhibitors, the environmental conditions and the experience level of the exhibitors/competition. Judges must assess exhibitor capabilities and choose patterns accordingly. Many patterns do not display the lineup allowing judges to bring exhibitors into the arena individually or as an entire class to perform the pattern from the lineup. This allows for variance in arena configurations and gate locations as well as show management desires. Indicate on your pattern and be clear with exhibitors of expectations. TESTS FROM WHICH JUDGES MUST CHOOSE For 2016 this is the list of Tests, however, in 2017 the tests will eliminate tests 8 and 9. It is recommended you do not ask these tests in 2016: 1. Walk or trot horse to or from judge. 2. Set horse up. 3. Back horse. 4. Movement of handler so as not to obstruct judge s view of the horse. 5. Turn horse (90, 180, 270, 360 degrees, etc.) 6. Trot down rail or around ring. 7. Move the horse to a different spot in the line up. 8. Pick up horse s hoof. 9. Mouth horse 10. Questions on relevant subjects such as: a. Parts of the horse b. Grooming c. Basics in horse care d. Proper attire Showmanship effective 12/1/15 11
12 NOTE: If questions are asked, the same or similar questions must be used with each handler so tested. METHOD OF SHOWING The Handler is to show using the Quarter System where the exhibitor is always in the quadrant next to the judge. THE QUARTER SYSTEM The quarter system is also very effective and offers added safety, but is a bit more complicated. The Quarter System involves drawing imaginary lines bisecting the horse into four equal areas as shown in the drawing. They are numbered I, II, III, IV for identification. One line runs across the horse just behind the withers. The other runs from head to tail. When the horse is set up for inspection, the exhibitor stands in area IV. When the judge moves to area II, the exhibitor moves to area I. When the judge moves to area III, the exhibitor moves back to area IV. When the judge moves to area IV, the exhibitor moves back again to area I. An exhibitor should never stop directly in front of the horse, since this is a danger zone. When the judge is in the front half of your horse, you should be on the opposite side of the horse. When the judge is in the back of your horse, you should be on the same side of the horse. FURTHER EXPLANATION OF PROPER EXECUTION OF SHOWMANSHIP MANEUVERS The Presentation/Set-up The horse may be set up with a split stance or square. Either option is allowed and acceptable. Exhibitors will not be penalized for either set up style. There are typically three times to set your horse up during the class. First -to start your pattern, secondduring the actual presentation to the judge, third- during the line up. Always be aware of the proper quarter regardless of how far the judge is away from you. Diagram of the Quarter system The quarter system is a very effective method in which to show your horse and ensure safety. The horse is divided into four parts. There is the imaginary line down the center of its back and another across the withers. When the judge is in quarter 4 the handler is in quarter 1, when the judge is in quarter 3 the handler is in quarter 4, when the judge is in quarter 2 the handler is in quarter 1 and when the judge is in quarter 1 the handler is in quarter 4. The handler stays out of the way of the judge and still maintains control of the situation. When you cross over, move naturally. Your goal is to be smooth and efficient in crossing to the other side of your horse. Think of the horse as a clock, with 12 Showmanship effective 12/1/15 12
13 o clock at his nose. When you set up your horse for inspection, you ll be at the 11 o clock position. To move to the 1 o clock position, you have to move around the edge of the clock and around your horse s nose. It takes most people three steps to move to the other side, and a fourth step to close their feet together. Start with your outside leg for your first step. It helps you take a step forward around your horse s nose. When you ve reached 1 o clock, close your feet and stand with your toes pointed in the general direction of the horse s opposite shoulder. Optimum crossovers should be completed in 4 steps. The Back In a showmanship class, keeping a straight or curved line, depending on the directions in the pattern and an effortless look when backing is ideal. Exhibitors must ensure they position themselves in the correct position and never stand directly in front of their horse. Diagrams 1 and 2 illustrate correct position from which to ask for a back-up from the ground. The exhibitor is standing to the left of the horse s head, their right hand on the lead, which makes soft contact with the horse s face. Diagram 2 shows how far away the exhibitor s body is from the horse, the direction the exhibitor s toes face, and the contact they have on the lead when they ask him to back. In diagram 3 they both step off for the maneuver at the same time, with the horse stepping back with his left foot while the exhibitor steps forward with their right. Diagrams are pending. The Walk and Trot and Body Position The exhibitor must lead on the horse s left side holding the lead shank in the right hand a reasonable length, with safety in mind, from the halter on the lead strap. The right hand must remain on the lead at all times (not on the chain). It is not appropriate to switch hands while completing the maneuvers (except set-up maneuver). Smaller exhibitors may need to use a longer hold on the lead strap. Hold the excess lead strap in your left hand, either in a round coil or a figure-8, as long as it is being handled safely by the exhibitor. When leading, the exhibitor should be positioned between the eye and the mid-point of the horse s neck, referred to as the leading position. Both arms should be bent at the elbow with the elbows held close to the exhibitor s side and the forearms held in a natural position. Height of the arms may vary depending on the size of the horse and exhibitor, but the arms should never be held straight out with the elbows locked. Image 1 and 2 show this position. The same position should be held during the trot. Some flexibility can be given to the left arm when trotting a circle as shown in diagram 3. The trot/run should be flowing not over animated. Exhibitors should not exhibit unnatural gaits such as high knees, squat, prance, or duck run or anything that looks stiff and animatronic. See diagram 5 as an example. At the walk or trot arms should not be extended in front of the body locked as shown in diagram 4. Diagrams are pending. The Turn or Pivot A proper right turn is on the haunches, with a hind foot remaining planted throughout the turn. The position of the exhibitor when executing a turn to the right is the same as the leading position except that the exhibitor should turn and face toward the horse s head and have the horse move away from them to the right. Diagrams are pending. Showmanship effective 12/1/15 13
14 SHOWMANSHIP CREDITS Handlers should show complete control over their horse and must perform the maneuvers of the class promptly and correctly. A pivot executed correctly should be credited as it shows control. A pivot or turn around on the haunches should be just that. The haunches are stationary and the forehand moves around in a neat, very controlled motion. The pivot should never wander. Handlers that show poise and alertness without being stiff, artificial or rigid are credited. Hands should have a purpose showing control. Handlers are credited for showing their horses in a safe and correct manner. If showing with a whip all movements should be precise. Questions on relevant subjects such as: parts of the horse, judging requirements of breeding classes, basic horse care or proper attire may be asked. Credit handlers that stay attentive to the horse and to the judge, always aware of the judge s position in the ring with respect to their own position and the horse s position and with regard to others in the ring. Showing a horse is an art and should be considered as such by the showman and judge alike. It is judged strictly on the exhibitor s ability to prepare and present the horse. The conformation of the horse is not to be judged. The horse is to be shown properly to the style of horse that it is. Credit handlers that walk or trot the horse directly in a deliberate line straight or curved as directed in the pattern. When trotting away from the judge, the handler should do so in a straight line, with the horse in line and moving directly away from the judge. Handlers may glance back over their right shoulder, with purpose, to confirm a straight and direct line away from the judge. The handler should correct the line if not trotting away straight. Once your pattern is complete it is not necessary to look back and nod at the judge. Credit handlers who perform the entire class with a consistent pace and rhythm that is complementary to the handler s gait and the horse s movement. Cones or markers may be used to mark the pattern in the arena. Showmanship patterns should be used that truly exhibit the ability of the exhibitor to work in unison with their horse. SHOWMANSHIP FAULTS Any motion or action jeopardizing the safety of anyone in the ring is a major fault. Loss of control or not following judge s directions is a fault. Not performing the pattern precisely and accurately is a fault. Executing the pattern in a sloppy, haphazard fashion, not tracking correctly to or away from the judge, pivots or turns that wander are penalized. Any loss of control of the horse is penalized. This includes horses that spook and run past the handler or circle the handler, horses that do not stand still while being shown, horses that trot too fast for the handler or horses that do not trot at all. Showmanship effective 12/1/15 14
15 Over-showing of oneself and not being aware or not paying attention to the horse and the horse s actions is penalized. Handlers who are too stiff, rigid and artificial and carry themselves in an unnatural position are penalized. Looking back continuously while walking or trotting away from the judge is antiquated and not necessary. Lack of paying attention to the position of the judge will be penalized. Handlers that move abruptly or unnecessarily for show rather than effective showing will be penalized. Handlers should not demonstrate an unnatural gait of running (squat run, duck run, prance run). Gratuitous moves can be detrimental to a pattern. Poor use of the whip or fumbling with whip should be penalized. If a whip is used, the handler should be able to use it effectively and correctly. The whip must not be used as a prop, to intimidate the horse or to encourage a maneuver. The whip should be down unless in the presentation/set up portion of the class, then the whip is to be up. Utilizing a whip effectively can raise the degree of difficulty; however, if not demonstrated effectively, it can be cumbersome and a detriment to the presentation.

19 TIPS FOR JUDGING SHOWMANSHIP Know your arena size, center ring and gate location as you select patters to ensure they can be executed correctly and safely (consider the number of exhibitors in each class) Talk to management before the show regarding the depth of skills of showmanship exhibitors Be respectful of exhibitors Be sure you have indicated on the pattern if you d like the exhibitors to set up at the gate prior to entry Choose a pattern and manage your class that will not exhaust your exhibitors, particularly in warmer climates with large lengthy classes Patterns at Regionals and Nationals must be posted 24 hours prior to the first section of the class and the must indicate which of the three procedures must be used In classes with multiple judges, indicate on your pattern where the call judge will be standing and then be in that spot In classes with multiple judges, only the call judge, or designated ring steward, is to walk the inspection Know your material before setting up for the class If you want to ask a question, ask the same question of every exhibitor. This is not recommended for multiple judge teams, as the other judges are not in proximity to hear the answer. If you ask an anatomy question, ask the exhibitor to describe the location on the horse rather than pointing as it gives the potential answer away to the remaining exhibitors. Ensure proper cone/marker placement prior to the first exhibitor executing the pattern. It is appropriate to meet with exhibitors at the gate prior to the class to answer any questions. Be aware of horse safety ask for only the handlers to convene. Do you best to have clear directions in your pattern and if asked a question, answer it in a clear manner. Expect the horses to be shown in the style of what the horse does for a living. The horse s movement will dictate what type of appointments he and the handler should be dressed in. Demonstrate consistency of your location as judge for each exhibitor s execution of the pattern When doing your inspection have a consistent path and rhythm around each exhibitor paying attention to not hesitate or stop on a quarter line. Judges may sit and elect to have a ring steward perform the inspection. Make sure your ring steward has a consistent path and rhythm around each exhibitor. Inform your exhibitors if they are only to show to the ring steward for the set-up portion of the class or if they are to show to the ring steward throughout the entire class. Make sure your ring steward is educated on exactly what you want them to do. When inspecting the horse, walk around each exhibitor with consistent speed and pauses at the same location of each entry. When stepping around the horse go to your left first for the inspection. Handlers will not move into their next quarter until you break the line of your next quarter. Due to the various safety and health concerns, judges are not to touch the horses during the class including during the inspection. Arabians are shown in many disciplines and we offer showmanship exhibitors something no other breed does: freedom of expression for the type and style of their choice. We do not need to limit style or expression, we need to reward excellence. Showmanship effective 12/1/15 19
